A New Method for Spinning Projectile Aerodynamic Estimation: Extreme Learning Machine Optimized by Cuckoo search algorithm

Abstract

Aiming at the problem of aerodynamic parameter identification of spinning projectile, a Cuckoo search algorithm for extreme learning machine algorithm is proposed in this paper. The algorithm uses Cuckoo search algorithm to optimize the hidden layer weight and threshold of the extreme learning machine, so as to avoid the problem of unstable identification results caused by the random weight and threshold of the traditional extreme learning machine. The simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively identify the aerodynamic parameters of projectile, with high identification accuracy and fast convergence speed. The proposed algorithm is practical in engineer applications.
